Hi George,

Hello,
yes my server can do tls 1.2 perfectly and also with the above (strong) cipher.I did some more tests where i modify step by step my server configuration until it works and here are my results. Test 1:My server allows ONLY tls 1.2 and ONLY the cipher ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
Test 2:My server allows ONLY tls 1.2 and ANY cipher
Test 3:My server allows tls 1.2 and tls 1.1 and ANY cipher
Test 4:My server allows tls 1.2 and tls 1.1 and tls 1.0 and ANY cipher

My jmeter.properties is set to do tls1.2 only - but the SSL configuration is only for the http protocol and not for smtp(s).Thus i think this does not care.I have java jre 1.8 latest plus the oracle security "Unlimited Strength Java Cryptography Extension Policy Files" pakage.
My jmeter test plan is very easy.
One thread one smtp sampler and one "view results in tree".The SMTP Sampler target my mail server on port "465" and the checkbox "use ssl" is enabled and the hook "Trust all certificates" is enabled too.There is one Subject: hello and Email body: hello. Simple Results:Test 1: Fail - no ssl handshakeTest 2: Fail - no ssl handshakeTest 3: Fail - no ssl handshakeTest 4: Success: Perfectly SSL Handshake. SSL Connection established using "TLSv1 ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA" (no client certificate checkup <- means no mutual ssl) OK thus it works.I can sent an email with jmeter SMTP sampler using (direct) ssl on port 465 - but it only works if i activate tls1.0.
I do not found any jmeter configuration about "smtps".

I did some further tests wirh thunderbird 31.4 (on a linux).Here the results.Test 1: Fails - no ssl connectionTest 2, 3 and 4: Success. Looking on the thunderbird settings its strange but the cipher i want to use is not available. Thus i can do tls1.2 but not with my "strong" cipher.

I have added a few println's in TrustAllSSLSocketFactory and found, that I have to change the line where the sslcontext is created first by calling SSLContext.getInstance("TLS").

When you change that occurence of TLS to TLSv1.2 you should get a TLSv1.2 connection with a string cipher suite.

This default setting should probably be configurable as the used cipher suites.
After a bit more research, the behaviour seems to be different between java 7 and java 8. In my tests java 8 was able to do a TLSv1.2 connect with getInstance("TLS"), while java 7 was not.

Can you double check, that you are using java 8?

Hello,
i try to sent a "hello" email using SMTP Sampler and want to use SSL/TLS on standard port 465 for this connection.More i want to use TLSv1.2 with the very strong cipher "TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384"Currently the handshake fail. Technially if i change the configuration on my server to also accept TLSv1.1 and v1.0 then the SSL connection works and the email is sent perfectly.I see in the logs that the client (jmeter) and my server aggreed on a cipher comming from TLS1.0.Thus in general SSL is working but not with TLSv1.2. Anyone any idea how i can use SMTP(s) with TLSv1.2 and the above cipher?I tried to put this in my jmeter.sh file but seems it does not matter? JMETER_OPTS="-Dhttps.cipherSuites=TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384"
The smtp sampler has no option to specify the wanted ciphersuites, so
the option given above will not be used.
I also installed lates java jdk and i also installed the additional strong security pakage and replaced the .jar files in /usr/java/jre.../lib/security
Which jdk did you install exactly?

Have you checked (with openssl or something similar), that your
mailserver is capable of TLSv1.2?
